 Jazbaa: From Roots to the Summit Sports are often measured through medals, records and victories, but behind every achievement lies a journey filled with discipline, dedication, setbacks and an unbreakable spirit. This very journey was at the heart of ‘Jazba: Jadon Se Shikhar Tak’, a national sports conclave organised by News18 India, part of Network18, in New Delhi on September 18, 2026. The conclave brought together celebrated sportspersons, policymakers, sports administrators, industry leaders and experts to discuss the changing landscape of Indian sports. Rather than focusing only on the final score or the medal podium, Jazba explored the people and systems that make sporting success possible. Looking Beyond the Scoreboard One of the central ideas of Jazba was that every sporting achievement has a story behind it. Years of training, early-morning practice sessions, sacrifices, failures, injuries, comebacks and the constant support of families and coaches are all part of an at...

 BRICS Summit 2026: What Did India Actually Achieve? The BRICS Summit has ended in New Delhi. Leaders met, important issues were discussed, and the New Delhi Declaration was adopted. But now comes the bigger question — what did India actually achieve from this summit? • A Summit Beyond Trade This year, BRICS discussions were not limited to trade and economics. Issues like terrorism, artificial intelligence, global conflicts, climate change, and reforms in international institutions were also discussed. The summit came at a time when the global order is changing rapidly, making BRICS an increasingly important platform for emerging economies. • The BRICS Currency Question One of the biggest talking points around BRICS has been the possibility of a common BRICS currency. But there was no launch of a common currency at this summit. Instead, countries focused on increasing trade in local currencies and improving cross-border payment systems. So, for now, the idea of a BRICS currency re...

Introduction:  The environment is the foundation of life on Earth. It includes the air we breathe, the water we drink, the soil that grows our food, forests, oceans, animals, and the communities in which we live. A clean and balanced environment is essential for human health, economic development, and the survival of countless species. Yet rapid urbanisation, pollution, deforestation and excessive consumption are placing increasing pressure on nature. Why the Environment Matters:  Healthy ecosystems provide clean air and water, fertile soil, food, natural resources and protection from extreme weather. Forests absorb carbon dioxide and support biodiversity, while rivers and wetlands help regulate water. When these natural systems are damaged, the effects can reach our homes, farms, cities, and economies.  Major Environmental Challenges:  Pollution is one of the most visible threats. Smoke from vehicles and industries can reduce air quality, while plastic and untreated...

We might be the luckiest generation of creators ever.   Why?   It is because we can wake up with an idea and, before breakfast, turn it into a video, a song, an illustration, a newsletter, or a film. And these days, we don’t need a studio. We don’t need a publisher. We don’t even need to know how to do half of it anymore.     Because the tools are easily accessible, because the tools are everywhere . And somehow, we are all starting to look a little too similar , too familiar .   Think about it.   We open Instagram for “just five minutes” and see twenty creators. Different faces. Different lives. Different countries. But the same hook. The same jump cuts. The same music. The same “ Tonight, V stepped into the crowd… ” or how “ Japan is turning footsteps into electricity…. ”   Never has a generation had access to as much creative freedom as ours But, then why does so much of what we make feel ubiquitously familiar ? Abundance  has a side effect...

 A sudden catastrophe in the Himalayas Nepal has been left confronting a major humanitarian emergency after a devastating flash flood swept through parts of the country's Himalayan river valleys on 26 August. The event began in the high mountains and rapidly developed into a powerful surge of water, mud, rocks, and debris, moving downstream through narrow valleys with little time for communities to react. The disaster was concentrated around the Lhende Khola and Bhote Koshi river systems before the flood moved into the Trishuli corridor. Rasuwa was among the worst-affected districts, while Nuwakot, Dhading, and areas farther downstream also suffered extensive damage.
